With us, you get the chance to be part of a team that drives development forward in industrial automation. We work in exciting projects, both large and small and you get the opportunity to influence the direction as much as you influence the solution itself. This is where you can grow, take your place and contribute with your expertise. 

Your role - and why it's important 

As an automation engineer, you play a key role in our projects from the first idea to a real, functioning plant. In practice it means that you get to work with:

  • Remodels and modernizations of existing facilities where you will combine analysis, problem solving and technology 
  • New turnkey projects, where you take responsibility from start to finished delivery 

In the long term we would like to see you develop towards a more leading and coaching role, where you get to mentor our junior engineers and contribute to the team's competence development. Here, the role is shaped according to both our customers' needs and your own strengths and driving forces. 

Who thrives with us? 

You who likes variety,  technology at the cutting edge and finding smart solutions together with others. Who is triggered by responsibility, wants to influence and enjoys developing. At AFRY you get both freedom and trust - and a team that supports you all the way.
